I’d like to request the alias “promtool” for the “prometheus” snap (https://snapcraft.io/prometheus) please.
Promtool is a binary built alongside Prometheus, which is used to test the configuration of, and rules for, Prometheus. I’m not aware of any other uses of the term “promtool” outside of Prometheus.

https://manpages.debian.org/testing/prometheus/promtool.1.en.html
Thanks!
Not surprisingly this conflicts with the prometheus
package in the Ubuntu archive etc but that is to be expected since they are the same thing and so users will likely expect / be aware of any name conflict as a result of installing both the snap and deb etc.
+1 from me for alias promtool
for prometheus
.

+1 from me too for granting the alias promtool
for the prometheus
snap, noting the deb name conflict is the same tool.
